Drag-off: Bugatti Veyron vs. tuned Nissan GT-R
The Nissan GT-R has earned itself a hard-won reputation as a giant slayer. The relatively low-buck supercar can embarrass more expensive hardware right out of the box. Spend a little time and money throwing a few aftermarket parts toward the Nissan and you can easily have a vehicle capable of giving vehicles like the Bugatti Veyron a scare.
Take the videos after the jump, for example. The two clips show off a drag race between a mildly-tuned GT-R and a bone-stock Veyron. While the Bug gets an early lead on the more plebeian racer, the GT-R makes up the gap quickly.

We all knew the Bugatti was going to win, but it only beat the GTR by 8/10ths and the GTR was a sleep at the start. The guy had geriatric reaction time. Both are amazing machines

love how you've got 15 people oohing and aahing with cameras fixated on the Veyron all with their backs turned on the GTR. Pretty much sums up even comparing these cars, one is an attention getter, the other is a bang for the buck workhorse.

Isn't that the whole point? The Veyron is a million dollar technological marvel with aviation grade engineering while the GTR is a much more down to earth sports car which runs with the more expensive machine almost stride for stride. At one million bucks a pop people better notice your car. But the GTR is magnificent in its own right.
